7 Reasons For

Only Released Four Months Ago

This fridge was only released four months ago, so it is likely to have more advanced features than some of the older fridge freezers.

Has an Icemaker

Unlike most of the other recently released fridge freezers which do not have an icemaker, the KFN 29283 D has an icemaker.

ChartEdit

Has a Super Cool Function

The Miele KFN 29283 D has a super cool function, as do most of the other fridge freezers that have been on the market for around the same time as the KFN 29283 D.

ChartEdit

Quite Big Freezer Capacity

Across all the new large total net capacity fridge freezers the freezer capacities range from 4kg/24h to 20kg/24h, and the average freezer capacity is 13kg/24h. At 16 kilograms per 24 hours, the Miele KFN 29283 D has a fairly big freezer capacity compared to most of the other large total net capacity fridge freezers that have been available for around the same time as the KFN 29283 D.

ChartEdit

Quite Quiet Noise Level

At only 38 decibels, the KFN 29283 D has a quite quiet noise level compared to most of the other new large total net capacity fridge freezers. Across all the large total net capacity fridge freezers that are a comparable age to the KFN 29283 D the noise levels range from 34dB to 44dB.

We think you might also be interested in some of the alternative 38dB noise level fridges currently available including the Indesit LR8 S1 W (£319.99) which has better reviews.

Very Big Door Opening Angle

The Miele KFN 29283 D has one of the biggest door opening angles (115 degrees) amongst fridges of this age. The average door opening angle of recently released large total net capacity fridge freezers is 100°.

12 Reasons Against

Very Small Net Fridge Capacity

Fridge freezers that were launched in the last year have net fridge capacities of between 210L and 420L, and the average net fridge capacity is 270L. At only 242 liters, the Miele KFN 29283 D has a fairly small net fridge capacity compared to most of the other comparable spec fridge freezers that are a similar age to the KFN 29283 D.

If you would prefer a fridge with a larger net fridge capacity then you might also want to consider the LG GBF60NSFZB (£369.99) (246L).

Does Not Have a Water Filter

The Miele KFN 29283 D does not have a water filter, although it is worth noting that most of the other large total net capacity fridge freezers that have been available for a comparable time to the KFN 29283 D also do not have a water filter.

Does Not Have a Water Dispenser

Like most of the other fridges that have been available for a similar time to the KFN 29283 D, the KFN 29283 D does not have a water dispenser.

We compared all the other fridge freezers which also have a water dispenser to this fridge freezer and we think the Indesit LR8 S1 S AQ (£320.00), or the LG GBF60NSFZB (£369.99) is also worth considering.
